NYSC / Re: UNN 2016 Graduate Appeal To NYSC to Extend The Uploading Of Senate List by Justeenaleo(f): 1:08pm On Oct 27, 2017
MVLOX:


Dats true u knw but that was in the past... Nigeria has evolved into a country where u nid go get it for urself.... Lemme use myself as an example, I have an NCE in physics and chemistry but concluded my BSc in Geology last year. I didn't bother going for clearance cuz in all honesty I don't nid it. I immediately started working with a high profile school cuz of my previous experience in the educational field. As we speak not only am I enjoying my Jab with is moderately ok in terms of pay and gathering more experience that will catapult me for better jabs while my friends re currently in service and complaining bitterly. Now its possible that a very few will be able to get good paying jabs after NYSC but majority will search and search until they have not other choice and fall back to what they have despised in the past, which is starting small, learning a trade or learning a skill. The irony of it all is that by that time those who took the initiative forthwith would have made some serious steady progress leaving the rest to wonder why it took them so long to tow the same path. I recently went to abuja for a jab interview, got the jab but didn't take it cuz even though d pay was good but it wouldn't pan out to much in terms of saving in a city like Abuja. Take note all this I did without an NYSC certificate. In my option the NYSC has lost its value and should be replaced by the Npower scheme. As for me I rather go learn a skill, trade or just go into the labour market and fight for the little scraps and make progress over time rather than sacrifice one whole year to NYSC where majority are assigned to the classroom, something they don't even enjoy. My experience has taught me that experience and starting small is the key in view of the current economic climate of Nigeria. Take note this is just my option. And yes because its working for me doesn't mean it would be applicable to others and work for them too.
By "jab" do you mean "job"?
Literature / Re: The Hypocrisy Of Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. by Justeenaleo(f): 8:08am On Oct 27, 2017
DarkRebel69:
I read "Janelle Asked To The Room" some minutes ago and, well, I can't say that I understand the purpose of this bitter harangue. It's either the OP did not read the piece or that he read it and elected to give it an entirely different and exaggerated interpretation.

Where was the mockery of Melania's son?

This is the part where Adichie made mention of Barron (tell me what is inimical about this description):-

"Sometimes Barron came down to the gym during their sessions, sweetly shy and polite, dependent on his mother for his sense of self. There was a delicacy about him that reminded Janelle of her son."

(Even if she did mock Melania's autistic child (which she did not do), is it the business of the reader to apply himself to the moral aspects of a work of fiction? I don't think so.)

This is just Matthew effect at play here. If any unrecognized writer had written that piece, no one would care to give it a second look, but it's being hyped up beyond merit because Adichie authored it.

Frankly, the piece is barely above average. I found it rather gauche and stale, and even the occasionally piquant metaphors could not salvage the sinking ship. It is probably Mrs. Adichie's poorest work thus far.

I, for one dislike a writer making overt allusions to a public figure (just like the annoying thing Eminem does when he takes potshots at celebrities). In my eyes, such an act reeks of a poverty of creativity. Every good artist (writers, poets, etc.) knows that the subtler approaches usually have the most resounding impact.

See for instance what George Orwell did with Animal Farm. He could have just referred to Stalin and Leon Trotsky directly and the entire novel would be sure to numb the reader's senses with an unimaginative obviousness, but instead he took the long-winded albeit powerful route by choosing to give us porcine presentations of Stalin (Napoleon) and Trotsky (Snowball), and of course the ignorant and mindless proles (Boxer, Clover, the ducks, the sheep). And that is why Orwell remains my favourite writer of all time.

Like I said, I think you people are over-reacting.

Lol

Nigerians are just so wicked!!! So you would want to eat Flour, beef, and Chicken, inside 50 Naira?

If Gala tries to increase the fees now, they will start blaming Buhari.

Maybe they should remove that thing and replace it with crayfish... Lol
What's wrong with wanting to eat "flour and beef" inside 50 Naira? They fixed that price themselves.
Romance / Re: I Wish I Had Cancer Or AIDS So......... by Justeenaleo(f): 9:01pm On Oct 24, 2017
frustratedrat:
first, my throat is partially blocked (don't know what). I have to belch or regurgitate to clear it up. I dont know if it's caused by cunninglus or a gum i swallowed one time.


Secondly, there's this perforation in my ear (probably middle ear). i hear sounds inside. I must have done more damage by continuing my playing of loud music.


Maybe it's haemorrhage or something else, but my head is on fire these days. I become disoriented, have a throbbing headache and blurred vision at times. Everything is complicated. I take panadol extra most times and self service to sleep to feel okay. But the discomfort never goes. Hmmmmm
I am no Doctor but now that you have dropped the symptoms, maybe a real doctor will see it. It's better than wishing for something you don't have.
I wish you the best.

I don't and I won't have much patience for someone who is capable of over pampering an SS2 student.
